Yep. As soon as I start moving in actual fields the reserved ones disappear. I think some compilers complained about the empty structs so I had to stick something in! The other alternative was just to introduce the structs as they are starting being populated. However, I feel the intent is far clearer to add all three initially. /Bruce
